There's always controversy when it comes to using, or not, the BOM. Last long thread I recall on the topic is http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2006Dec/ thread.html#msg13 http://esw.w3.org/topic/QA/Utf8BomInteropReport That said, I *think* that most of the issues between the CSS validator and documents with BOM were fixed in the past, did you experience any big trouble with one, and if so, is it online and can we use it as a test case? thanks -- olivier
